Dr. Ross Pennie’s career as a specialist in infectious diseases has spanned the globe. He is a professor at McMaster University in Hamilton, Ontario, and practises at Brantford General Hospital where he takes care of hockey stars and donut lovers alike.

He started writing at age ten by chronicling the four-day train trip he made solo across the Prairies and Rockies between his home near Medicine Hat, Alberta, and Vancouver, B.C.

His award-winning memoir of Papua New Guinea, The Unforgiving Tides, continues to delight readers with its grit and charm.

TAINTED, his debut Dr. Zol Szabo medical mystery novel, and TAMPERED, the second in the series, are set on the Niagara Escarpment at Hamilton, Ontario. Ross and his wife have two grown children. Learn more
